Non-standard user-warning. Contains cultural reference that may not make sense to the reader. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:09, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Harmless and humorous template to remind people not to bite Newbies. WCMemail 14:21, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

non-standard user warning Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:56, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question: What does non-standard mean? Hyacinth (talk) 03:21, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to {{uw-tilde}} to which it is redundant (unless a need is demonstrated for the brevity in the message). It would then be an {{R with history}} so I'd oppose deletion. Uanfala (talk) 12:19, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:NYTtopic

This is just a template for search engine results which is contrary to WP:EL. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:30, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Links to a single publication's curated page on a topic. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:02, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – Complies with the second paragraph of WP:EL; WP:ELNO #9 doesn't apply here. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:34, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep –Not search engine results. These are links to topic pages. Search engine queries act on any search terms one cares to entet. Topic pages do not. In the case of the NYT, their limited list of topics can be reviewed at http://www.nytimes.com/pages/topics/ using the alphabar within the subject areas of People, Places, Subjects and Organizations:

"Each topic page collects all the news, reference and archival information, photos, graphics, audio and video files published on topics ranging from A M Castle & Company to Zyuganov, Gennadi A. This treasure trove is available without charge on articles going back to 1981." Flatterworld (talk) 02:35, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Guardian topic

This is just a template for search engine results which is contrary to WP:EL. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:30, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
